Megadeth - The Sick, The Dying... And The Dead! lyrics

Bring Out Your Dead

Invaders came on phantom ships
Sailed the Black Sea West to Sicily, yeah
Yeah
The sick, the dying, and the dead
All that was left from
This cursed disease, yeah
Yeah

It was the fleas onboard that bit infected
Rats got blood inside of the fleas, yeah
Yeah
Soon the ghost ships tied up to the docks
The path of the plague was complete, yeah
Yeah

The sweet smell of rosies
A pocketful of posies
You can't mask the fragrance of
Death in their beds
There's typhus in the air
And ashes everywhere
Amongst the sick, the dying, and the dead

Feral creatures feasting on the dead
Devour rancid human meat, yeah, yeah
Death and sickness permeate their bones
Rich or poor, they're dragged
Through the streets, yeah
Yeah

Open up your eyes, so you can see
All the sick, the dying, and the dead

Die, die, die!

The sick, the dying... And the dead
